Update on plans for Vampire Prosecutor 2
by | May 8, 2012 | 54 Comments

Woohoo, new news for Vampire Prosecutor 2! The show had previously reported about a second season, but the months of silence on the matter had me a little concerned that the project would fade away.

According to a rep from OCN, the sequel to the stylish, buzzworthy crime-paranormal-procedural drama will be coming back to the cable station. The series hasn’t been given a timeslot yet, but chances are good that it’ll be in the Sunday night slot (like the first season) after God’s Quiz 3, which is the drama following Hero. They’re looking at getting back all of the original cast, which would include so-cool-he’s-hot hero Yeon Jung-hoon, who positively sizzled in the first season—and then knocked you dead with his adorable boyish charm.

Vampire Prosecutor was one of cable’s biggest hits, across all channels; its finale episode drew an average rating of 3.34%, with minute-by-minute ratings topping out at 4.3%. The number of cable shows that have brought similar numbers—heck, that have topped 2%, much less 3%—is pretty tiny; more cable programs have faltered than soared, sadly. So it makes sense to bring the show back, in addition to the fact that the procedural/mystery format is perfect for expanding into another season.

Add to that the fact that Vampire Prosecutor was one of the most stylish dramas I’ve seen, AND that the director is currently doing a bang-up job for tvN’s fusion drama Queen In-hyun’s Man, I am totally ready for Season 2.

    WOOOHOOO!! I just keep waiting and waiting for more VP. Seeing all the good vibes Queen In-hyun’s Man is getting, I should also check that out. All I’ve got is lots of quality drama watching time out here in the wild west this summer.

  6. Saima

    NICE!! I’m currently mid-way through the first season and I like it. Stylish and different from the American procedurals that I’ve watched!

    • 6.1 mtoh

      ooo keep watching….I finished season 1 in three days…I was so hooked.

  7. WeWe

    My year 2012 is full of detective-mystery-thriller dramas, dramaland God spoilt me too much *teary eyes*
    Hoping more good news for VP the 2nd *chanting mantra*

  8. kaleido

    so happy.. I just finished Can Love become money star the wonderful Yeon Jung-hoon.. and he certainly bought his VP charm to CLBM.. can’t wait for season 2..

    • 8.1 MsGB

      Is CLBM any good? I said I was gonna watch it but haven’t got around to it.

      Sooooo Excited!!!! I can’t wait to watch and not just for Yeon Jung Hoon (as if that wasn’t a good enough reason) but the bromance between him and Lee Won Jong, the romance(?) between him and Lee Young Ah, and whatever other -mance that’s between him and Kim Joo Young!!

      • 8.1.1 Mystisith

        I’m self-promoting shamelessly here, so if JB or GF want to delete this comment it’s totally OK.
        MsGB: Click on my name: I recapped eps 1 and 2. NO subs for later episodes sadly :(

      • 8.1.2 KDaddict

        The show itself is so-so, but he is really a joy to watch. He doesn’t get to do much, just sit at his conference table, dining table, work table, but still…..
        Did not watch VP, become a fan of his after CLBM. Will watch VP1 b4 VP2 starts in June.

    • 8.2 pipit

      Agree. Love.Love. Love Can Love Become Money.
      Love. Love. Love. VP. I wasn’t his original fan but after VP I certainly am. Looking forward to VP 2!

    • 8.3 Linda165

      Waiting for subs… *sobs*

      • 8.3.1 pipit

        *join Linda to cry for the subs of CLBM*

  9. Mystisith

    Very good news! :) :) :)
    And with excellent timing i might add.
    I really hope they can have the all original cast, plus the team working behind the camera. VP is a all package. Season 2, i’m waiting for you!!

  10. 10 YBisTOP

    Oh yeah!! I was disappointed at the ending for season 1. I am soooo happy to hear that there will be season 2! Hopefully all the old characters will still be in it. :)

    I’m also waiting for season two of TEN: special affairs team! (If there is season two)!

  11. 11 MissMantin

    YAY!! I was getting a little worried by the silence, too. I hope they can get the original cast back because the show just wouldn’t be the same without them.

    It’s coming back!!

  12. 12 Lise

    Ha ha! Drama gods do exist! I did say yesterday i hope theres season 2 to TEN, VP and Hero and voila! I also knew s3 God’s Quiz was coming up but so soon? Am not worthy!!!

  13. 13 MsB

    So happy to hear this!! I loved VP! It reminded me of a show I loved on SciFi channel but it got cancelled that was about vampires.

    • 13.1 MissMantin

      Do you mean Moonlight, starring Alex O’Loughlin? I’ve always thought VP was pretty similar to that one, which made me deduct a few points for originality, but I still love it. Both are great shows.

      • 13.1.1 mtoh

        I wasn’t much into Moonlight, but that has something with Jung Hoon…he wasn’t in it ;)

  14. 14 Stacy

    Wooo! This just made my day! I’m trying to get my drama-crack-addict BFF (also known as my cousin’s wife) to watch season 1, but every time she tries she’s interrupted. Oh the joys of 6-yr old boys and husbands who act like 6 yr old boys :D

  15. 15 Cassandra

    This news totally made my day

  16. 16 Kassandra

    ^MADE MY DAY TOO. More vampire prosecutor, MORE!!
